Great call.

Two that rolled in the credits were so quintessential '80's.

Everybody Wants to Rule the World at the end of Real Genius.

Talking Heads This Must Be The Place at the end of Wall Street.

"Melt With You" and you have a trifecta.

ETA:

"Don't You Forget About Me" in close 4th.


As far as contributing to this thread I'm a pretty big fan of "Goodbye Horses" on one end of the spectrum and "Scatman" (HILARIOUS) on the other.

The rap songs in Django Unchained. Wasn't expecting them but it fit in perfectly when Django was killing all those white folk at the big house and while being en route to the big house.

Great choices here. Probably the all time best are the 2 Goodfellas songs. Long shot, and Vendetta scenes.

I'll throw this one out there, that's a favorite of mine.

NIN version "Dead Souls" in The Crow, tied with The Cure's "Burn".
